Executive Condominium is a form of subsidized housing built by private developers, having same eligibility restrictions like HDB (family nucleus, citizens and permanent residents), you should dispose any other property 30 months before applying, minimum occupation period of 5 years before you can sell to citizens and PR, even single PR. After 10 years since TOP date, all restrictions are lifted and even single foreigners can buy. See the TOP date in the map and table:

Notes

NO executive condominium was topped between 2008 and 2013, because HDB phased out EC scheme in favor of DBSS scheme, resumed EC land sales in 2010 in parallel with DBSS, then suspended DBSS land sales in 2011.

Last land sale for EC development was in May 2016. As October 2017 no more land sales were done, putting under question if there will be more EC in the future.

EC completed in 2013-2014 had original estimated completion date around 6 months later. so I guess that the current under construction EC may be completed 6 months earlier than indicated.

I update the above table every few months. TOP date for completed EC can be seen on HDB InfoWeb too, frequently updated. Land sales for future EC launch can be seen on: HDB InfoWeb > Land sales > Residential > Executive Condominium (I do not post direct link to PDF, every time when HDB sell a new EC site, the PDF is renamed). Estimated completion and number of units sourced from EC websites made by agents. Unfortunately these websites often provide contradictory info.

Although I am fascinated mostly by HDB, and I post on my website things that cannot be found anywhere else, I added this List of EC page on my website in early 2012, because several visitors have suggested this, but their suggestion also had a negative effect: occasionally some people attempt to purchase an EC flat via me despite that I am not agent, then blame me what is the purpose of running such an real estate website. If you want to buy an EC you can contact the partner agents shown below.

Executive Condo statistics

Executive Condos offer flats with 2, 3, 4 bedrooms, 3-bedroom being dominant (unlike private condos dominated by studios and 2-bedroom). A small number of 5-bedroom flats popped in EC launched since 2013.

Like DBSS, EC are designed by private developers hungry for profits, to sell as many units possible, the apartments were downsized and latest Executive Condo apartments are smaller than HDB flats. I do not know exact info about number of rooms distribution in pre-2008 EC but typical flats available starts with 3-bedroom which were around 110 sqm, and ends in penthouses, largest being 324 sqm, in The Quintet (source). In the new EC launch after 2010, sizes like 80 sqm for 3-bedroom and 110 sqm for 4-bedroom are common. Note that the sizes include an oversized balcony and A/C ledge, while the bedrooms can be small as 6 sqm. Highpark is one of the few condos that include dimensions in floor plan, you can see that bedrooms are around 2.5 x 2.5 meters.

Penthouses did existed in Executive Condos, being sold at high prices unrealistic for an income ceiling of $12.000. Government decided in January 2013 to cap the apartment size in EC to 160 sqm, Forestville being the LAST EC with bigger apartment sizes, biggest penthouse being 252 sqm. Stupid rule in my opinion, developers being unable to build bigger apartments will further downsize rooms and start increasing psf (price per square foot) to maximize profit in defavor of quality of living.

Looking for condo floor plans? Do a search on Google Images, most EC have floor plans public available on their websites, I do not plan to collect EC floor plans or copy them on my website.

I never monitored new or resale prices. EC bought at the price peak of 2012 may be hardest hit but we will know exact profit only when they reach resale market in 2020. However, I don’t think that resale price will fall under new price.

You can appeal to HDB to say that your status changed (got married) and they will allow you to buy EC during MOP of HDB, an EC which do not complete earlier than MOP, because you need to sell HDB within 6 months after getting keys of EC.
